Yea, agreed. That's why I am buying, but people were curious so I gave them answers. This car is not a lease type of car.Leasing defeats a core reason for getting the car, in my opinion.. A luxury car with a monster V-8 and a manual transmission? They won't be making those forever, as automatics and EVs continue to become more prevalent. Get it now, while you can. All of which is another way of saying: I'm betting a BW with a manual will hold its value well, relatively speaking, over the long haul. I'm not saying it will be collectible or I'll make money, not counting on anything like that (although that would be nice). But I do believe that broad market trends will provide a bit of a tailwind; depreciation won't be as bad as, say, that leasing residual table shows. Gotta own to take advantage of that.
